Robert Kiyosaki is well known for his “Rich Dad” series of best-selling books.  Robert is an expert in money and finance, and his sister, Emi, is a Buddhist nun, the Venerable Tenzin Kacho ordained by the Dalai Lama.  The two grew up in Hawaii with their family, and their lives took very different turns when Robert went off to the Vietnam War, and Emi went to study Buddhism in India.  Together they have written a wonderful book that looks as the spiritual side of wealth.  What makes us rich, and what makes life meaningful?  How do we define “work?”  Simplicity, and the “want not/stress not” philosophy are very important in this discussion.  We need to develop healthy habits in every area of our lives.  We need
to understand that change comes from within.  The Buddha said: “Be a light unto yourself.”  Rich Brother, Rich Sister: Two Different Paths to God, Money and Happiness is a wonderful book.
